#disconnected love

[girlzoot]

George Earnshawe regarded his wife with fond affection, and would have found her hatred of him astonishing. He thought of her in the same way, and with the same emotions, that he thought of anything which had been in the house for ten years and still worked well. The television, for example. Or the lawnmower. He thought it was love. —Neil Gaiman/Forbidden Brides Of The Faceless Slaves/Fragile Things

The left is on board with 'the general public isn't willing to go up against millionaires and billionaires because they hope deep down that they themselves might one day be wealthy, ' but within leftist circles I'm constantly seeing and knowing people who're unwilling to go up against copyright law or making media completely free, and I swear to god it's because they hope they themselves might one day be full-time big-name artists who would be "robbed" by such a system

For the Laicion nation (aka, me and three other people)

I had this illustration commissioned (a big thank you to @lunehowls) for my werewolf AU Laicion fic (still a WIP).

The general pitch is as follows :

AU in which Laios never got to meet his sister again, putting his life on a whole other path, a more desperate one. A military deserter with barely a coin to his name, Laios hitches a ride on a boat to one of the elven continents, where he learns about magical tattoos that binds one’s soul to a wolf’s, effectively making them artificial werewolves. Illegal magic be damned, this feels like the answer to… everything.

In the process, he learns about the existence of an illegal fighting ring in one of the elven cities, where beastmen gladiators gather. Freshly tattooed and without anywhere else to go to, Laios decides to head there, where he meets Lycion, an elf and artificial werewolf gladiator. If they first bond over a simple shared meal, by spending time together (sharing the same room in the barracks, maybe the same bed? gasp) they find that they have a lot in common, notably a shared distaste for the body they were born in, a dysphoria partially remedied by becoming a werewolf.

They bond :)

NB: I commissioned another piece, go take a look :D

I don’t understand the concept of sex as the natural progression of romance. I understand having sex, I understand how it can be romantic, I just don’t understand how it is seen as the only course that romance takes.

Like love confessions immediately turning to sex is always so ???????? to me. Like ok get it I guess but how did we get here???

i need you all to listen to me. you know how youtube will sometimes randomly recommend videos with like, 58 views? sometimes the stars align and the fucked up algorithm does something right.

go out there and watch a smaller mcyter. sub-100k at the bare minimum, but ideally under 10k and even more ideally under 1000 subs. bonus points if they have in the low 100s to under 100 subscribers. watch whatever video you got recommended. watch another of theirs if you vibe with it. pick a specific series of theirs that you really like. subscribe to them.

now. this is really important. leave comments on the video or series you like. do a running gag if it helps remind you to comment. and more important than that: pick a story they're telling and engage with it. draw silly fanart even if you don't have any place to share it with them. write a tiny little story and keep it all to yourself. hype them up to your friends. get excited about this person's videos. if they do have a discord or whatever, send fanart, get involved in their community, et cetera, just --

i cannot stress enough how good it feels to have at least one tiny niche thing that's your special thing. it rules. the more you can get the better, in all honesty it doesn't even have to be an mcyter it could be an itch.io visual novel or something, just pick something obscure you stumble onto and hold it close and let it tell its story.

there will always be something there.

I can never quite get enough of "good only" players who use the knock out exploit to romance Minthara, only to turn around and complain that her romance feels "incomplete". Yeah, probably because you missed the most critical part of her romance that is locked behind the grove raid! Her spicy scene is not what is important, it's what happens after the fact that is.

The moment where her mask unravels and shatters. Where you are the first person in a very long time to see the real her. Where she puts herself in your arms because for just a brief moment, she feels some semblance of safety, something she hasn't felt for centuries. How she begins to express doubt in the Absolute, her experiences, and herself. Where she is completely unable to recognize who she is or the things she has done, because the Absolute has stolen her mind and her body. Where the Absolute amplified all her worst characteristics while suppressing the good and reasonable ones. Where you were the first real choice she has ever made in a long time, a choice that she is completely sure she made for herself. A choice that makes her realize how little she has had all this time. A choice that makes her realize that she actually enjoys the silence of the Absolute because it has been nonstop noise in her head! You gave her peace, you gave her comfort, you gave her security, you gave her silence. You were the choice that begins her Absolute deprogramming. When you come save her in Moonrise, she prays to you because you are the only one she has faith will answer. She sees you as her savior, her god. Because if not you, who else?

And you miss ALL of that by skipping the grove raid. Don't complain that her romance feels incomplete, when you chose to not complete it!

I love Dream's face, partially because he looks the exact opposite of the characters he plays. Like

this is guy who plays manhunt and c!Dream.

I was here since 2020, people drew his unrevealed face with sharp angles, sharp nose, and pointed hair based off of his personality.
